How Do I Know If I Have Been Mis-sold A Car Finance Loan?
If you believe you were mis-sold PCP (Personal Contract Purchase) finance for a vehicle, here are some signs that may indicate potential mis-selling.
Guide you on the appropriate steps to take.
If you answer ‘No’ to any of the below, you may be eligible to make a claim:
- Were you advised of the commissions that were being paid?
- Were you offered the best interest rate available?
- Were you offered various finance options based on your circumstances, and informed how they differ?
- Was the agreement unaffordable, or was the agreement not properly explained to you?
If you are successful in claiming, you do not have to give the vehicle back. The only instance where you may not receive the entire compensation you are owed is if you are in arrears with your finance payments. Some of the compensation may be used to bring your account up to date.
This is not a problem as we can request I from both the Dealership and/or the finance provider.
No, the claim will be brought against the finance provider. The Dealerships acts as the broker and as an ‘agent’ of the finance provider. It is the responsibility of the finance provider to ensure their ‘agents’ are adhering to the relevant FCA regulations.
